Free membership:

Yes.

Paid membership:

They recommend you sign up for the year, as they advise it can take this long to find your perfect match.

Well, they would, wouldn’t they :)

But it’s also the most economical option, on a month-by-month basis.

Payment options: All credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Discover, Amex), Paypal and Visa or Mastercard debit cards.

Renewal: Once your subscription runs out, it will automatically renew you on a monthly basis. You can turn this auto-renewal off via your Profile’s Accounts page, or choose to auto-renew for whichever time period suits you (monthly, 3 month, 6 month, or 1 year).

Open to: Worldwide – but they don’t accept members who are gay or married (ie. separated, but not divorced).

With a paid membership you can:

We like: eHarmony com is a seriously impressive site, with lots of free articles and features to keep you amused: dating tips, success stories, videos, relationship advice, and safety hints.

There's a lot to look at before you even take their questionnaire. They also have profiles of couples from their TV ads who met and married through eHarmony online dating. So they're not actors after all.

The personality, relationship and lifestyle questionnaire takes about 30 minutes, give or take. And it's very comprehensive. Once you fill that in you can go directly to your profile page. This reviewer already had 7 matches to look at. Cool.

You can fill in more personal details, likes and dislikes, etc on your profile.

We don't like:

Nothing so far. This is one of the top online dating sites. Our eHarmony review is positive becauce the service they offer is pretty impressive. Some people might not like the fact that you can't search through other members' profiles, and that eHarmony does the choosing for you. If that's the case, then a more traditional online dating site may suit you better.
